I thought the deal I was getting was unbeatable. Click to expand... Not that great to me. I take it your goal is to spend money on possibly the "last system you may ever need" ? If that 's the case, definitely wait until you get your house. Or at least wait 1 year. Do more research for at least one year. If you've saved $4,500 now, you could have $6,000 in a couple of years. In the meantime, you can start an open-ended thread called "Help me buy a $6,000 Speaker System". Shoot, in 5 years, that budget could be $8,000 or more! If it's going to be your ultimate system, don't rush it on a sale. Last edited: Apr 19, 2017 Reactions: Pogre

I've managed to put together a pretty nice system with help from here. When I'm ready to buy that "last system" I'm gonna to go in with as much knowledge and experience as possible. You're talking some significant money and there are so many other options. The more you know...

G greatestboss Junior Audioholic Dec 13, 2009 73 0 8 Apr 20, 2017 #23 Thanks guys, you made me think twice. Of course I can wait but an outstanding system ie; my last ever purchase would be much more expensive than the $6,000-$8,000 you quoted. If only someone can tell me how would they rate my existing setup, then it'll be a good starting point. Is it tis bad?

I would wait until Amazon has their ~ 50% Denon/Marantz sale. So keep an eye on Amazon. They've sold $2,500 Denon AVR for around $1,100 in the past.

They're really nice and solid wood. Reactions: JohnnieB
